How do I get the arrow keys to work in csh? > <<Stuff from the FAQ deleted>>> I never was able to implement this from the FAQ on a 040 cube running 2.1. Niether was another friend with the same machine. I sort of wonder if anyone has done this the way it is explained in the FAQ... Anyway I just blew it off and learned the emacs bindings and like 'em just fine! If you don't know already, with editmode=emacs: previous = ^p (like uparrow in VMS) next = ^n back (for in-line editing) = ^b forward = ^f Where ^ means control. These are basics, for more info learn emacs. Eric > Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology > Email: Randy.Nelson@Rose-Hulman.Edu >
